Subject: Re: PUPT: new thread


Again, on the subject of TV:  when I was in Seattle, at the Seattle
festival, I attended a workshop that was taught by a talent agent in Los
Angeles.  She said that there was plenty of work for puppeteers there, and
that she was the leading talent agent for puppeteers.  Perhaps someone out
there can remember her name... Nancy
